This one looks like it's missing, only the part attached to the post remains, there was nothing to unscrew. Took a photo of what is left if CO wants to see it.

Out in the area for work. But had some time for a cache.
Cache soon found, but like others said, the lid is missing.

Pretty simple to find.
Please note I believe lid is missing as nothing to unscrew. Tweezers may be handy also as had to use pen to get log

Was on this walkway on a non-geocaching trip with Butterflylady. Checked the goecache app to see if there were any caches nearby and this one was only 10 m away!! Easily spotted and as others have said the cap is missing but log is still there.
Many thanks
Many thanks
A nice spot to view the meeting of the east and west. Quickly spied the cache, and was tugging at it, thinking it was stuck due to recent rain....
but no, got down to the right height and spied the log lurking inside; cap missing had us thinking outside the square, instead of instead.

This was a quick find at night. Lid is off, log is dry. We were coming home from a monthly event, teaching the first born how to geocache.
Spotted this as we walked up to it. Unfortunately its missing its lid so the log book/paper is sitting inside a bit exposed. Needs maintenance
Awesome cache! ! Thank you of note there's no cap over the end of it which the bf said was there when he found it
Afternoon tea at Westgate then time left to grab a cache or 3. Quick find. Container nut missing. TFTC
Nice structure, easy find, needs a new nut.
Replaced log strip with waterproof one.

A very coolcacache with nut missing. A surprisingly dry and full log (I couldn't sign it) still inside but in full public view.
Pretty quick find, cause as Pazzabella says "the nut is missing & the log's in view". Nice wee cache tho
Saw the strange object and thought it looked out of place, so I inspected it and there was the log. TFTC
Out enjoying a bike ride on a nice quiet day. Not many muggles in sight on Christmas.
Found it with help from a blind man! needed his strength to remove cache from spot. (had taken photo to send to you in case we could not retrieve it!)
An easy find thanks to the clue A cool bridge with a nice view of little lake below:) Me and the kids just had to walk over the bridge TFTC
Great to find our first! after my 5yr old was giving up from our 3 failed attempts ! Neat find we both were so excited for our first found treasure ☺
Nice little cache. Made me make a mental note to pack tweezers Thanks for the cache!
Good to see this up close as we never come this way-thanks for bringing us here-qwik find
Found originally as part of rebel98 team, now created own account, re-logging as rustynz
Decided we needed to try out the bridge and do some caching whilst in the area. Found after a short search. Thanks again for the hide.

Have wanted to explore this area for a long time, and today we got to walk across this bridge. Its amazing what they have built, just beautiful. Approached GZ and quickly found what we needed, with the help of the clue. Was in area after having a game of mini golf and ten pin bowling, another great hide, not seen this before.
I had some spare hours today to do more cache rambling in Auckland, mostly out west. Spotted the cache container on approach. Realised as per previous logs that the lid is missing. Managed to extract log which is in a good state. This area has certainly changed since it was open paddocks and strawberry fields. TFTC, Biggles.
Out and about after work this after noon for a spot of caching. Parked up right next to GZ and made a super quick find. I seem to be following BigglesNZ around this afternoon. Cheers for the cache placment!
On a beautiful day. However, screw is missing as somebody hasn't screwed it back on. Tried looking for it but didn't want to be too obvious.
Saw it easily while walking towards gz. Couldn't unscrew it but got the log out ok. People walking past so I pretended to be reading my son's stationery list while filling in & replacing log. Tftc
Our second one the day while we took a break from all the Christmas shoppers TFTC

A crazy week beginning with a week in Wellington for work, and then a public holiday and friends birthday, so flew straight to Auckland from Welly to continue the adventures here!!
Well, as part of tradition with this friend, we always stay up late watching Outrageos Fortune and eating junk food - felt pretty bad doing this, as I am on a health buzz, but hey, I was on holiday!!
So after popping to Countdown, convinced my friend we should stop for this cache
An easy find, and yeah! Another to add to the list!!
Consec caching day # 376
TFTC!!

the previous Cachers have noted, while the log is still intact the top of the cache is missing. Impressive that log has managed to last so log without top. Need maintenance urgently. TFTC
Drove past this one today and realised we'd been here before. Stopped to check the log for when...so signing and back dating. Sorry for the late log, great camo though
Found cache quickly, but as previous finder mentioned, the lid is now gone and needs replacing. Log is intact. TFTC

6yr old daughter found it before i even got out of the car. Top part of the cache has been removed ???
Quick stop on the way to the event. Gosh they've done a good job around here. Nice spot. Clever hide. Found log all raggy, so popped a new weatherproof log in. Will be back to explore further another day. SL. TFTC.
Just a quick find on the way home from a night out.in heels too.boom! Loved this one.

It is time to pick up a few of the "Kwik" caches, plus a couple of others, and to do on the way to the Event tonight. This was one of the others. Logbook needs replacing as it is slightly mangled.
Cheers for the cache.
Very very clever, obvious with the hint, maybe prefer to make it less obvious, maybe make us work out it is a screw or something, maybe fr example say its a windy bridge or something?? TFTc!
Knew what we might be looking for with this cache (thanks to the hint) and sure enough, the cache was soon in hand.
A favourite point from us - in what turned out to be our last find for the day.

A quick find after working out the other thing very close nearby wasn't the cache and then spotting the obvious hide. It took a bit of cajoling to get the log out but I eventually got there. Thanks!
Great camo! Found easily as had seen one of these before. Forgot a pen so couldn't sign. Tftc
